Questions & Answers

Could 3 computers be connected to 1 printer with this? Are you able to switch it automatically?

You can use this with up to three computers and a single printer if the printer is connected to a USB port. Neither switches automatically nor is it preprogrammed. You can control which PC is a USB host by pressing a button on the USB hub. For example, if you are connected to three USB ports and you would like to print a document on the second computer using USB, you must press button 2 to take that USB host control. It will establish, and you can then proceed as you normally would to print over USB.

Is this a solution for a computer that has been wiped? The plan is to use this to perform multiple Windows installations for the first time, so drivers are not required. ?

Depending on what version of Windows you are running. In the past, I have used this switch on either Linux or Windows 8 computers. There are two versions of Windows Windows XP and Windows 1. Linux and Windows 8 did not present any problem to me. I tried to use this with Windows XP, but it did not work. With Windows 10 and the original Raspberry Pi (as well as Raspberry Pi 4), it worked.

Is there a hotkey support in this KVM?

The switch has no impact on hot keys as they are determined by the keyboard and computer.

A keyboard with an extra USB port can be plugged into the keyboard port Is there a mouse jack on it (if it is not plugged in)?

The reason for not doing so is the same. Basically, there is a switch and some wires. By doing so, the switch should support two mouse at once, one in KB and one in the KB.

Despite the LEDs, it was a great hubbub
4/5

The bottom line I like this, but I can't see the little LEDs attached to the end cap. Buy something else if you want to see the LEDs. It's time for the show to begin! The goodness of a good hubbuh is a godsend to a developer. There's nothing bad about this one This hubbuh is very reliable and sturdy, has solid steel case, good button feel, and separate buttons for each PC so you do not have to hit the lone button three times to go from 2 to 1 (there are hubbuhs that cost $4 less that only have one button). This is the one you want). Pay the extra $4 for it). With good connectors and 4 usable connections, it makes a great gift. An A-type USB cable of 5 meters (5 feet) These cables are type B. This device also has four ins and four outs, so you can connect a mouse, keyboard, and two other devices so you can move from machine to machine. However, it does have one (irony) failing The LEDs are hard to see most of the time. Moving your head along a line parallel to the hubbuh will allow you to see from the top, but it's not easy to do. This is not a problem with You'll be impressed by them. It's very light coming out of the large side vents (they exist for aesthetic reasons) in emerald green No appreciable power is used or produced by the device and there is no heat generated) but almost nothing is coming out of the By the buttons, there is a space of approximately 0. 1mm. After I took it apart, I discovered whether it was I or you that caused it (I'm not you, I'm me). The spirit of the raccoon is To disassemble everything, everything must be removed). On the current board, the LEDs are barely visible as "chip" parts. This is an increase of 15mm compared to the one on the previous board. There are 1mm holes in the LEDs, which means a beam of light is shot out of them. As a matter of fact, my first thought was to enlarge the holes, like the one I did on the top The other day, I saw a button plastic hubbuh. Up to 2 mm (better than 2 mm) I took them. The drill I used was a 5/64ths drill, which is A 98mm bore). The beam was widened, as well as the metal inside the hole instead of black paint. Partially, it helped as the hole was wider, partially it helped as the metal was shiny. A fiber optic network is the only thing that can resolve this problem. It would be easy to make some with plastic rods of 2mm diameter. It still seems like the best course of action for me is to suffer with it as As long as I have it Velcroed to the monitor stand at an angle that is so close to my eyes that I can see it clearly, I can see three LEDs. In my household, I call this a "hubbuh" since it turns into a "reverse hub" or "buh" when paired with a multiplexer. For me, Hubbuh solves a great deal of problems. There are two workbenches with six studs each There are around 10 (depending on the week) computer models (predicated on tower PCs, laptops, tablets, phone models, Raspberry Pis (the plural of Raspberry Pi is either Pi or Pie it is not Pis. ). Please stay away from embedded systems (e. g. , ARM based systems). The bench configuration I am using at the moment It is simple to build one bench Both a PC and a tablet are required. Objections to the other one are more complex Using a Raspberry Pi I'm making a prototype for something I'm working on, a Samsung with DeX, and All hubbas come with a mouse and keyboard, but only one of them has a monitor. A total of 3 computers or devices that resemble computers. Meanwhile, the man in the middle is there. On the corner wedge that connects the benches is an Apple Macbook. If the tower has enough switchable inputs that it can drive 1, 2, or 3 monitors and the macbook gets whatever is left over, the tower will drive them and the macbook will get whatever is left The Hub has USB 3 hubs on both inputs. Both hubs are connected to the Hub, so you can use either keyboard on it. Even Synergy couldn't figure this out. Almost everything on the benches is connected by a pair of 8-pin floppy disks) More than enough bandwidth for Synergy, with ports for gigabit Ethernet switches I just don't think this system works well in this context.

This device constantly cuts out and resets, so after 30 days, it stopped working
3/5

My Raspberry Pi 4 serves as a home workstation and I used this keyboard and mouse switch between my work computer and Raspberry Pi 4. Throughout the first few days, the device attaches to the host machine disappears and reappears a second or two later, and has been doing this about every two hours. The majority of that was tolerable, though. Although aux power was plugged in, it still did this. However, the switch is no longer working as of this morning. The peripherals attached to any of the host computers are not visible. Buying this at any price is not a smart move.

It does the job
5/5

I have been working from home for the past few months, as have many other people. As a result, I needed a solution that would allow me to use my existing mouse and keyboard both at home and at the office. I do not use all the USB ports on this switch since it controls four of them. As I connected one cable to a USB C mini hub attached to my office computer, I found the other cable wayward. Using the second cable, I plugged it into a USB hub attached to my computer at home. There is certainly a convenience to having a wired remote control. I have it tucked between my router and computer for easy access. A couple of buttons on the top of the selector unit also work properly. There is a metal box that looks sturdy to hold the selector unit. I had difficulties getting my USB transmitters into position, but I managed to wiggle them in. I hide the cable clutter behind my computer and router, but there is some cables lying around. However, I was able to keep my keyboard and mouse that I love very much without buying a new one. In addition, this was far more affordable than purchasing a completely new multi-game console You can use this switcher with a mouse or keyboard on any of the four USB ports. * One particularly nice feature is that it can be powered by either USB 2. 0 or USB 3. 0. Connect your computer to Even if one computer is turned on only, the box will still be able to function. Power may only be drawn from one port of some switchers.

In addition to cables, you will need to purchase other items
3/5

My plan was to return this device for poor rating due to its inability to perform until I decided to try another spare printer cable I had on hand. I was able to get it working! I found the cables that come with this device to connect to the PCs to be of no use. The cables must be supplied by you if you want it to work. As long as this isn't the case, the switch works normally.

Please be aware of these possible dangers
3/5

The situation is not stable. Here are some of the This unit was well made, and I really appreciated the ability to select the computer that I wanted directly from the buttons. I was able to switch ports on the computer without issues as long as I did not switch ports while the computer was running. This is how the setup looks In my computer network, I connected three machines An Xbox Series X, a Surface laptop, and a desktop. In this example, I use high-resolution Cables with a shield (not the junk cables that come with the device). During the connection process, I connected the following Those with an Xbox 360 gamepad require mice, keyboards, USB adapters, and a network adapter. Here are three things that are not good

When switching to an active computer, the keyboard would fail to work 60% of the time, and the mouse would fail 40% of the time. The summary is It would not be a model I would trust. There's something about its design that makes it produce It might cause inrush current if all four devices are connected at the same time. There is a possibility that connected devices are affected by power glitching When switching, a problem may occur if a power is not retained on the device, and if a sudden switch from +V to -V is made Please go to There is no difference between 0 and Please go to I am +V. It is not worth the headache, no matter what the cause may be.

However, it's too bad, as there are few options that allow you to switch multiple devices between four computers, and even fewer that provide a button for each computer. However, it is not reliable enough to use.
